The Fall ’48-Spring 749 season marks the 
Fiftieth Anniversary of the founding of C. R. 
Burr & Company, Inc. The late Mr. Clifford R. 
Burr established the business which now bears 
his name in the fall of 1898. 
From a small beginning of less than one acre 
of cultivated nursery stock, this company has 
continued to grow until today there are five hun- 
dred acres under cultivation. Approximately 
three acres of storage is under roof, and in ad- 
dition modern cold storage is used for those 
items which require the maintenance of sp-cial 
temperature and humidity. 
We extend to nurserymen a sincere invitation 
to visit us during our anniversary year. We 
shall be pleased to have an opportunity to show 
our stocks in the fields and take you through our 
warehouses. Your comments as to the va- 
rieties and grades of material which most nearly 
fill the needs of your business are of interest to 
us, because we aim to propagate and produce 
material for which you are experiencing a good 
demand. It is our desire to continue to produce 
quality nursery stock of a type and caliber which 
will warrant your patronage. 
We are located nine miles east of Hartford, 
near Routes 6, 15 and 44. We will meet you at 
Hartford, Conn., or Springfield, Mass., if you 
notify us when and where you will arrive.
